I have a little computer problem that perhaps someone here can help me with, even if said help amounts to, "No, there's no easy way to do that."
At work I have a desktop computer, with Internet access.
At home I have a desktop computer, with no Internet access.
In my pocket I have an iPhone, with a data plan. I got my iPhone in part so I would have at least rudimentary Internet access and email at home. The experiment is only about two months old now but, So Far So Good.
We use Google Mail at work, and my iPhone syncs to Google's cloud, so I can manage my email using either, at any time. Works great.
I back up my data files on both my home and work computers, and keep files in synch between them, via an external hard drive. Also works great.
With me so far? Okay, here's the problem:
There are times when I need to get a file attached to an email onto my home computer, but I would rather not have to drive to the office, save the attachment to the external drive, drive back home, etc etc etc.
So: is it possible, in some cheap/easy way, to set up some sort of wireless network (Intranet?) that would allow me to to essentially email the file from my iPhone to my home computer?
Or something like that?
Any and all help, assistance, advice, etc. will be greatly appreciated!
